the last 40 days…

By Rudy

…might be a good title for a zombie movie. 🙂

I hate Apple. Wife has a Powebook G4 that’s eligible for a 2006 battery recall, but Apple Malaysia won’t honour it as it is out of warranty. After making calls and making a query on Apple Discussions, I decided to just pass my battery to a colleague going for a vacation in the UK. New battery was delivered no questions asked.

I hate Citibank. When you talk to their customer service people they sound like all they want to do is get rid of you. You know, not in language but in the tone of their voice. Their collections department is so hard to reach.

I hate Streamyx. As usual. Been having sporadic network issues over the weekend since Saturday; download speeds would fall to shit without affecting my uploads. Couldn’t even access Streamyx or TM’s own website. I hate calling for tech support because it usually ends up making things worse.

Customer service is a failboat in this country.

I love Ip-Man. Such an awesome movie.

Upgraded some cables to CAT 6 in the hope that it’ll improve my HD streaming to the PS3. Somehow or rather my Aztech Homeplugs got fried in the process. Such delicate things.

Food and Games

By Rudy

Been a while hasn’t it? I kinda forgot what happened over the past few days, to post here at least. I’ll just start in reverse chronological order; easier for me. 🙂

Went to the Yacht Club today; spent the whole day there napping and reading. My sister had her sailing exhibition, and my lil bro had fun running about with his young friends.

Why did I nap so much? Spent 4 hours at the Match Room in Sri Hartamas last night with Azuan and Vincent and another friend. Arrived home at 3AM. We spent those hours playing Battlefield 1942, which is an awesome game. Vincent sure likes to mock newbie like me, but I’ll show him next time (adds a new entry on his pasar malam shopping list).

Friday was a usual day for me. Had the consultants fix-up their deliverables to make them work better.

ST Nemesis was a great movie. Much more action-packed than the previous ST movies. I misplaced my phone again that night; ended up going back to the office only to find out a lot later that my lil bro left it under a pile of papers in the car. 😛 Well, at least now I know where the working public phones are in Mid Valley.

Yes, as you can see,

By Rudy

Yes, as you can see, this is now my not-really-a-weblog weblog. Weblog for short.

Anyways, it’s been a while since I’ve had a holiday. Actually, not quite, but to me a week of work seems to stretch on forever. I dunno, I guess I’ve always had something against earning a living. A love-hate relationship; love payday, hate the rest of it.

Manga read since last entry:
Flame of Recca Volume 26 Chapters 1-5

Movies watched:
Monsters Inc.
Porn. Just kidding.
